This is the first time i have posted.Can not believe the club would not look into this,Come on city just sort it out.

quote; Eccles Blue. "Just doing their job".

How many times have we heard this right through history?

The Nazis where "just doing their job" as a prime example.

SO MATE, BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU "JUST DO YOUR JOB", BECAUSE WHEN YOUR FREEDOM HAS GONE YOU WILL NEVER GET IT BACK, EVER.

Look at the OPs case, sign of things to come?

Fletcher= filthy slime, that is all.

As a person who has marched many, many, many times for the freedom of others and the injustices meted out to people over the years, the last time being the 26th March 2011 in London (did I see you there!) and having been a steward at the Poll Tax marches in the 1980's I take your remarks very, very, seriously. I am a female pensioner so would not be classed as your 'Mate'. I made a statement about MOST of the stewards just doing their job; twice (at least) earlier in this thread I have stated very forcibly my support for the OP so please think before you try insulting me!!

Much more articulate people than you have tried to insult me MATE so just read back over the whole thread before you go off on one!!

Edit: If you search hard enough through these forums you may find something I quoted a few months ago on a similar thread but to save you the bother of searching I will repeat the verse just for you:

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the communists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me -
and by then there was no one left to speak out for me.

The German anti-Nazi activist,
Pastor Martin Niemöller

As I was a very active Trade Unionist that verse has always been instilled in me. You will find that, earlier in this thread, I stated that the club might possibly be looking into the situation but could not sack Fletcher out of hand because of employment laws. My background in the TU movement gave me that knowledge.

Rant over!! (For now anyway!!) :-)

For the life of me I cannot understand what the club is playing at here. If it was just being dealt with by Fletcher and his staff I could imagine a cover up, which in itself is despicable but I cannot believe that with the publicity and emails sent to other staff members that this is being allowed to proceed to the point of the club looking ridiculous. What are they thinking of. I understand to a point standing by an employee but when he is inflexible even when wrong surely if only to avoid a P.R. disaster someone should step in and rectify the situation.
I don't understand how Mr Fletcher didn't agree to settle this with the offer of medical proof once he had this in his hand, I am sure a simple apology and the season ticket returned would have sufficed but now look where we are with this. People can blame Mr Fletcher and some stewards but what scares me more is that others higher up in the club knowing it is causing bad feeling between the club and fans are letting it happen and doing nothing.

Oy,just hold your friggin horse! number one i said Mate metaphorically, not literally, i do not know you so how the hell can you be my mate. By calling Fletcher a Mr., well that is upto you, pensioner or not, i do not give one fig to be honest. Have you ever been on the receiving end of 'ahem' Mr.Fletcher? i have.

And so what you was in London, well done you. I was not slaggin' you off so get right off your high horse, i was merely quoting what you said "just doing his job" nonsense that you posted. So well done for your marches, quoting history and whatever else you have ever done in your life, i do not know you and don't personally want too, mate.
You said it(just doing his job), nobody else, but YOU, I DON'T LIKE THOSE WORDS AT ALL SO WILL AND HAVE SAID WHAT I WANT TO AND BELIEVE, now it's a thread to get the OP his tkt back and to hopefully help towards getting someone who is clearly not doing his job, out of our club, or you gonna hit me with the "you havent been watching City as long as me" rubbish now?

BTW, iit would have been Adolf Hitlers birthday today, he killed millions, well not him personally like but people that "were just doing their jobs", mate.

dinnae fesh yersen mate. I don't need any more mates or friends thanks, got plenty of my own.

Have a good day y'all


Longsight memories,

As many of my friends tell me there are no labels that fit me, I am unique!! ;-)

Night lads. Don't get into mischief now!!

Well like the OP and countless others, I've been wronged by these Showsec Nazis. I can kind of understand it from them, because they're protecting their job and have to be seen to be doing something.

I was with a very prolific poster on here and we heard a senior female Showsec steward tell a new female steward as the male stewards exited the toilets : "That's a shame they've not caught anyone".

In a normal situation, I would have questioned her attitude. However one wrong word and I'd have probably been ejected (with several cast iron statements from the Showsec crew).

Bad as the stewards comments were, Peter Fletcher's refusal to enter into reasonable dialogue on matters (such as the OP's and several other cases) is even worse.

By the way that nice poem you put down by the pastor... the same guy who helped kill quite a lot of BRITISH i would guess merchant sea men... was he the best you could come up with ?


Martin Niemöller was born in Lippstadt, North Rhine-Westphalia, on 14 January 1892 to the Lutheran pastor Heinrich Niemöller and his wife Pauline née Müller, and grew up in a very conservative home.[3] In 1900 the family moved to Elberfeld where he finished school, taking his abitur exam in 1910.
He began a career as an officer of the Imperial Navy of the German Empire, and in 1915 was assigned to U-boats. His first ship was the SMS Thüringen. In October of that year he joined the submarine mother ship SMS Vulkan, followed by training on the submarine SM U-3. In February 1916 he became second officer on SM U-73, which was assigned to the Mediterranean in April 1916.[9] There the submarine fought on the Saloniki front, patrolled in the Strait of Otranto and from December 1916 onward planted mines in front of Port Said and was involved in commerce raiding. Flying a French flag as a ruse of war, the SM U-73 sailed past British warships and torpedoed two Allied troopships and a British man-of-war.
In January 1917 Niemöller was coxswain of SM U-39. Later he returned to Kiel, and in August 1917 he became first officer on SM U-151, which attacked numerous ships at Gibraltar, in the Bay of Biscay, and other places. During this time the SM U-151 crew set a record by sinking 55,000 tons of Allied ships in 115 days at sea. In May 1918 he became commander of the SM UC-67. Under his command, SM UC-67 achieved a temporary closing of the French port of Marseilles by sinking ships in the area, by torpedoes, and by the laying of mines.[9]
For his achievements, Niemöller was awarded the Iron Cross First Class. When the war drew to a close,
